82 <h3>Introduction</h3>
83 <p>
84 SliTaz GNU/Linux is a free operating system working completely in memory from
85 removeable media such as a cdrom or USB key. It is light, speedy and fully installable
86 on a hard drive. SliTaz is distributed in the form of a LiveCD that you can easily
87 burn to a cdrom and boot from. When the system is running you can eject the LiveCD
88 and use your CD drive for other tasks. The Live system provides a fully-featured,
89 working graphical distro and lets you keep your data and personal settings on
90 persistent media. The system can be extended with the Tazpkg package manager and
91 security updates are provided for the cooking and stable versions.
92 </p>
